Today, while getting my hair done, I was annoyed that the beautician was not paying attention while straightening my hair. After asking her three times to watch what she was doing, I grabbed the iron and said "let me do it, you're going to burn me!". I then burned two layers of skin off my ear. FML

Today, I got my hair dyed at a fancy salon. While the stylist was pulling out the foils in my hair I sat up and started screaming in pain because the hot foils were burning my scalp. All she said was "oh, you're fine". I went back home to find an oozing burn wound on my scalp. FML

Today, I used my hair straightener to attempt to straighten my eyelashes and burned my eyelid. I don't know what's sadder, that fact I thought it would be fun, or that I was stupid enough to think I wouldn't hurt myself. FML

Today, I was reading a magazine while straightening my hair. I got really into this one article until suddenly a huge clump of hair fell on it. I looked up and realized I had burned through the layer of hair I was straightening, leaving me with one layer at ear length and the rest at bra length. FML

Today, I decided to save a few bucks and let my mother cut my hair. I then had to wait in the hospital for attention due to the fact that she cut the tip of my ear off. FML

Today, I was straightening my hair when I heard this crunching, sizzling sound. Taking the flat iron away, I realized that I had just fused a spider to my hair with the heat. FML

Today, I got burned, all because the toaster scared me while I was holding a pot of boiling water. FML

Today, I was using my new curling iron to curl my hair. I was sitting down. Suddenly I dropped the iron and, as a reflex, I caught it between my bare thighs. FML

Today, I burned myself while cooking, so I asked my mom to get the burn cream while I waited in the kitchen. While I was waiting, I absentmindedly set my hand on the hot stove, earning myself a second burn. FML

Today, my girlfriend asked me to straighten her hair while she did her makeup, even though I’ve never straightened hair before. I burned a length of it off, because I had no idea what I was doing. It’s super obvious from the back, but she’s gone out already. I’m a dead man when she gets home. FML

How much attention does it require to hold something and slowly pull down?

You definitely deserve it. Those people do that for a living day in and day out and know what they are doing, so why would you even open your mouth unless she actually burned you? You should have kept your mouth shut, that burn you felt was karma giving you a little reality smack.

You never, never, never grab a tool out of anybody's hands, professional or not. Not only is it rude, it is dangerous. You really deserved it.

maybe that's why she's the one with the license and a profession.

she is the one with the license, and you are not accustomed to the equipment she is using (it could be hotter than the ones your used to using or things such as that).. my hair dresser told me of a woman who picked up a curler, and unbeknown to her it was malfunctioning and its heat setting was extremely high, the woman proceed in burning off her bangs, after which she tried to blame the hair stylist when in fact it was her own fault for not letting the hair stylist do it.. congrats on being a dumb ass!!

#8 and #2, yeah, here we call them Irons. Short for Straightening (or curling) Irons. OP:.... You know what's coming.

YDI for thinking you know better than a professional. Of course she wasn't paying attention, she's not an idiot. Even I can straighten my hair while chatting and watching TV.
